      @@petarilic4071 Actually, gods are shit in duel links. Exodia is pretty good if you build it right; which can be a quite annoying deck with Exodia reincarnate and power of the guardians combo (equip it to your 2nd Exodia incarnate so that it can't be destroyed by anything until you get 5 Exodia pieces) used that deck, and i can climb pretty fast.

    I remember watching new Yugioh episodes every Saturday, early in the morning then going to play Yugioh for free at the local Toys R Us before opening. It was one of the best atmospheres, everybody playing cards of all ages, trading, conversations, having fun. And back then nobody had the same style deck so every duel was exciting. Those were the days 😭

      Simply money that is all any person that can have a job or inheritance or whatever to provide them comfort to casually spend $50k on cards can have a collection of that caliber. Though the average person just gets wonder struck to think its some big crazy story behind it because its so out of most means to accomplish. Give me 50k and 6 months and i could get a collection that rivals or beats that.

    When I was younger I tried to collect a set of Legend of Blue Eyes. Unfortunately, I wasn't able to get every card. I do have a full set of Exodia, Blue Eyes White Dragon, Dark Magician, and Tri Horn Dragon though. I don't remember them being first edition though.
    I remember when I completed my Exodia set. It was at the Saturday morning duel league thing at Toys R Us. I was just missing the Left Leg and some kid had it. I pulled a Kaiba with his briefcase and threw down my entire box of cards and was like "I'll give you whatever you want for that Left Leg." Needless to say, I got my final piece. I was so excited I was showing it to everybody. Immediately once I got the set, one of the guys hosting the league offered me $100 on the spot for it. I declined the offer. I still have it today.

      I remember when I was younger I had a collection like this, not all 1st editions but I would say anywhere from 60-70% of the collection was. They were kept in as new condition but were forgotten and accidentally thrown out as junk by my parents when we moved. I sometimes wonder how much it’d be worth today. I still have a pharaoh’s servant booster box that’s konami sealed in a box in my basement. Crazy how if someone stockpiled and kept hundreds of the original yugioh booster boxes etc they’d make a load of money.

Tournaments would be hard because there aren't that many in Germany and in addition i won't have a chance to succeed... I really don't want to just give up the game and my awesome cards...

    A friend of mines I remember back then in high school couldn’t afford Yugi-oh cards.
    So, he decided to print out Yugi-oh cards and tape them on his Pokémon cards.
    He used those printed out Yugi-oh cards the next day to play me during lunchtime.
    I was like dude! Wtf is this ! I started laughing. He said he couldn’t afford them so he had to go cheap.

I didnt really had the money back then nor did my parents to afford such cards for me to really get into it further. Well, here i am playing Duel Links since day 1 and i spent money reguarly and i have almost all cards (i can afford things like that now) yet i'm always going back to SimplyUnlucky and watch all your videos, it's something great about them, they give me this feeling of nostalgia and also make me feel like i own the cards with you, if that makes sense?

The packs are worth $20 to 30 each or more $50 k is a deal but I'd say he probably got it for $30 to $40 k which would be incredible if you don't know much about yugioh educate yourself about then you will realize your wrong. But I do get why you would say that to a person that don't know about yugioh or just think it's stupid it would be an L but his whole life he has collected an dedicated his self to yugioh he's living his dream and making it happen!
